All,
I don't think we need to panic concerning the SAC budget and raise the dues
to $30.00.
Lets wait and see how next year goes.
The budget "looks" bad, but maybe it isn't as bad is seems. I have a tough
time going through it the way it is presented. Maybe if one presented the
information in a standard accounting sheet Income and Expense (two column)
deal it would be more understandable.
